Tracking
You can view your order progress my logging into your account or by clicking Recent Orders and entering your order number and postcode.
Not all orders have tracking numbers, if your order is trackable details will be available here.
If you have received a TNT tracking number by email you will not be able to view it until approximately 7pm that evening when it is scanned at our local collection depot. You may also see an older delivery with the same tracking number. This is because TNT reuse their tracking numbers which can lead to a little confusion!
Signing For your Delivery
Any goods of reasonable value will be shipped by a signed for Royal Mail service or Courier. Please provide a delivery address where you will be available to sign for the delivery.
If the Royal Mail or Courier try to deliver when you are out, they should leave a calling card showing a number you can call to rearrange delivery. Alternatively, they may leave your goods with a direct neighbour, this will be noted on your calling card.
If you do not think you will be in to sign for your goods, you can select an alternative delivery address to your payment address by checking the box on the first checkout page. Note - Bike purchases paid for by finance can only be delivered to the address used to apply for finance.
Shipping to an Alternative Address
You can select an alternative delivery address to your invoice address by checking the box on the first checkout page (with the exception of Finance and Cyclescheme purchases).
Shipping Taxes EU
In the EU, taxes are paid locally. UK VAT is already included in the prices on our website you will not have to pay any other taxes when the goods arrive.
If you are a VAT registered business in a different Member State to the UK we can remove VAT before shipping. Please contact us with your VAT number if you require us to do this.
Shipping Taxes Non EU
If you live in Andorra, Australia, Canada, Canary Islands, Channel Islands, Gibraltar, Liechtenstein, Monaco, New Zealand, Norway, San Marino, South Africa, Switzerland or USA then VAT will be removed from your order at the checkout.
VAT is shown as a seperate line in your shopping cart this will be shown as a deduction when you select a relevant country in the first page of checkout.
The current VAT rate in the UK is 20%. Helmets, books and some energy foods are zero rated for VAT.
You may have to pay import taxes and VAT at your delivery location, please check this with local customs before ordering.
Shipping To BFPO Addresses
We offer shipping to BFPO addresses. VAT will be removed at checkout. The current VAT rate in the UK is 20%. Helmets, books and some energy foods are zero rated for VAT.
Please note, due to size restrictions, we cannot ship bicycles, wheels or other bulky items to BFPO addresses.
VAT 407 Refunds
If you are buying your goods in the UK and are later leaving the EU and would like a VAT407 to reclaim your VAT then we can provide you with a VAT407 form in store. We cannot provide this form through the post as we need to carry out a passport ID check before we sign the form. Please advise us if you would like a VAT407 form prior to coming in store so we can ensure we have this available for you. Please ensure you are eliglible for this scheme before requesting a form.
Christmas Shipping

If you place a bike order with us in the week before Christmas, please contact us for an estimated delivery day.
